The 33rd annual Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach was April 13th, 14th and 15th this year. Everything from champ cars to celebrity racing and drifting to American Le Mans was present at the street course in Long Beach.

Our seats were on a corner that also looked directly at one of the many big screens. To get the best experience, we walked around to nearly every spot and viewing point on the course. Walking around the track was quite a challenge with limited crossovers and lots of people! Once we ate outside in front of Bubba Gump and the noise was absolutely ridiculous!

There were many other attractions to see including the Sony robot, indoor pits, go karts, modified cars and bikini contests. Hugh Hefner presided as Grand Marshall of the celebrity race along with girlfriends Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt. Girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson was already in her race car along with other celebrities including George Lucas, Dave Mirra, Martina Navratilova and Robin Quivers. Dave Mirra won the celebrity race.
